Geeez Louise What a weird weekend!!!!

So I don't ride bikes, always wanted one though, and out of the blue a friend of mine offers me a clean CB750A for $300. I of course purchase and tell a friend what I bought... lookie here what he gave me for it sight unseen!!!! Yep, not Porsche less anymore!!!!

Do you have any reason to believe the second friend has a grudge against you?

Lol, This is my 3rd 924S, this one is an 88' model... Was saving up for a teener, and will probably still get one, but this one has A/C!!!!! On a somber note, the CB would of been cool to learn to ride on, but what the hey!!!

Yeah, I thought so, it needs a few items, and I will do a timing belt job on it, but I figured the price was right....

You'll enjoy that 924 a lot more than a 750 Bill. Congratulations!

A CB750A is a bike with Honda's shortlived automatic transmission.
IIRC about 1977-78 ??

Damn--great deal. I love CBs, but the "A" is not very desirable--the 924S is worth more.
